I have turned this number in twice in the past.  I am on a no-call list.
It calls my cell phone.  i have not answered it in months.
Today I got two calls from it, at 9:35 a.m. and 4:18 p.m.
I really want to get these stopped!

This number has called me:  10/4/17 at 12:03 p.m. central time, 10/12/17 at 4:48 p.m. central time, 10/16/17 at 12;43 p.m. central time.  The last call I tried to press ignore, didn't work, and the guy on the line kept saying "Hello, Hello".  I hung up.  I don't know who this is.  This number is NOT in my area code.  It no one I know and is an unwanted call, so it has to be a spam or scam.

Someone named Lisa actually left a message after they have called three times a day for a month saying she is with Wakefield and Associates.

Well known debt scammers who try to extort money from people/

You need to send them a certified, return receipt debt validation (by law they have to go back to the original creditor to prove you owe the debt), cease and desist calling, or "not me" letter (this will be the best money that you have ever invested).  Also send it first class mail in case no one will sign for it.  Make a notation of that fact at the bottom of the letter.  You also need to report them to the proper agencies to which I have provided links to.  Then you need to go out and get a consumer lawyer to sue them on a contingency basis (no money out of your pocket) and let them pay you for the harassment.  If everyone did these three things, these crooks would be bankrupt and we would all be the richer for it.  Use these web sites to find an attorney in your state that will probably take the case on a contingency basis (no money out of your pocket up front):  http://www.consumeradvocates.org/

Everything else you need to know follows including at least two agencies where you should report their criminal activities.

It is incumbent upon them under the law to prove that the debt exists and that you owe it, and that they have the legal right to collect it.  You are not obligated under the law to prove that you don’t owe or that it is paid.  

Federal law (FDCPA) requires them to send you a letter (US MAIL ONLY) postmarked within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt.  It also must contains “mini-Miranda” telling you that it is an attempt to collect a debt and that all information will be used for those purposes.  The one other important thing that this letter must also have in it is that you have a right to dispute the debt within 30 days of receipt of the letter and if you do so, all collection activity must be stopped until the debt is verified.

Read up on your rights here and also make a complaint at this government site:  http://www.consumerfinance.gov/

Also file a complaint with your State Attorney General's office.

Called ten times this morning. Call every day. I told them months ago that they have wrong number and they call anyway!

Who is this. They refuse to tell me who they are and want last four digits of my social before they will give me any info. It’s annoying.

Who is this.

I think it has been established who it is, perhaps re-read what others have already said.
